That night, the other party plundered her too fiercely and his actions were very intense. The next day, her body could not take the torture and she had a high fever. The fever was so high that she even forgot to buy contraceptive pills. Of course, Old Madam Liu would not give her a chance to take contraceptive pills.

Moreover, before the two of them went to register their marriage, she held Ming Yue and Liu Jingxing’s hands affectionately and crossed their hands. She smiled with satisfaction. “Good child, after registering your marriage, the two of you will be officially husband and wife. Work hard to give me a big fat baby. This is the best gift you can give me.”

Liu Jingxing drove to the company. His parents had already boarded a plane to the Maldives. Now, he had to handle all company matters. He was so busy all day long that he did not even have the time to eat. The only time he could relax was when he drank with his friends after work or when he occasionally went fishing in the mountains.

He had wasted the entire morning today, and there was a huge pile of documents in the company waiting for him to review and sign. Thinking that it was all because of that country bumpkin, he became furious, and his expression darkened.

After working at the company for the entire afternoon, he suddenly remembered that he had not been to Fairview East for several years. If not for the two of them getting married this time, he would almost have forgotten about that house. No one had lived in that house for so long, never mind cleaning it. It would probably be so dirty by now, right? So that woman was cleaning up by herself while pregnant?

He was instantly nervous. He suddenly stood up from his chair, scaring Secretary Tang, who was reporting work in front of him. He asked with a trembling voice, “President Liu… I… Did I say something wrong?” Secretary Tang was so frightened that he could not even speak properly when he saw the CEO’s tight frown.

Wuwuwu, it was all President Liu’s fault for being too fierce, especially when he wasn’t smiling. He was really scary. After following President Liu for three years, he knew that not only did his boss look fierce, but his temper was also really bad.

President Liu was nearly 1.9 meters tall. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist. His limbs were long and slender, and his muscles were firm. When he stood there, he was very intimidating. He usually did not smile while working and was extremely strict. Poor Secretary Tang was only 1.76 meters tall. Standing opposite President Liu, he looked weak and helpless.

His entire body was trembling, and he could not even hold the report in his hands. He saw his boss looking at him arrogantly. He then unhurriedly asked, “Do you think it’s dangerous for a woman who’s two months pregnant to do some housework?”

“What did you say?” Secretary Tang suspected that his brain had been scared silly by his boss. He knew every word his boss said, so why couldn’t he understand when they were connected? He looked at the other party’s solemn expression. However, his mind was empty, unable to decipher the meaning of the other party’s words.

“Do you want me to repeat it to you?” Liu Jingxing frowned as if he was very unhappy with his absent-mindedness. Secretary Tang was so frightened that his entire body trembled. He quickly composed himself. “Erm… if she’s two months pregnant, it shouldn’t be a problem as long as she doesn’t do very strenuous housework.” He had an elder sister who had just gotten pregnant this year and was now more than five months pregnant. He recalled that when she was two months pregnant, she was still jumping around at home.

Liu Jingxing narrowed his eyes. “It should be fine… right?”

“I… I’m not sure. I don’t have any experience, but my sister was very agile when she was pregnant. She should be fine…” Secretary Tang stared at Liu Jingxing’s gaze and lowered his head as he spoke.

Liu Jingxing sat back down and leaned back lazily. He looked up at him. “You don’t have any experience? Didn’t you say before that your wife is already pregnant?”

Secretary Tang looked at the president helplessly and said aggrievedly, “That was your ex-driver’s wife. I don’t have a girlfriend yet.”

“Oh.” Liu Jingxing thought inopportunely. Before today, he was also a single man. Now, he had suddenly become a man with a family. He had married an old-fashioned and scheming woman. Thinking of his grandma’s threats and bribes, and that annoying woman, he sighed deeply and looked at Secretary Tang with an indescribable envy.

Then, with a knowing tone, he said, “Secretary Tang, cherish this free time.” Secretary Tang swallowed and said, “I’ve been free for 25 years. I want a wife to take care of me now.”
